Proven Experience
Since 2011, our team has been building walking tours and the apps that deliver them — long before self-guided tourism was its own category. That experience is baked into every route we build today: what makes a story land, where guests actually stop, and how to turn a walk down Main Street into something worth remembering.
That experience runs on SmartGuide®, a proven walking-tour platform built on Amazon Web Services (AWS) — the same infrastructure trusted by companies operating at global scale. It means every tour loads fast, works when it needs to, and stays reliable no matter how many visitors are using it at once.
The App
WLKTours® powered by SmartGuide® is a full-featured, self-guided walking tour app, built by a team of professional tour guides with over 16 years of experience delivering walking tour experiences worldwide. Every tour is custom-curated, brought to life with audio and video storytelling, and mapped to the landmarks, businesses, and hidden gems that make each destination worth exploring.
Historic walks, brew pub crawls, architecture routes, and more — visitors choose what fits their trip.
Narrated stories paired with short video presentations bring each stop to life — more than a voice reading facts.
Every point of interest is plotted on the map — landmarks, local food & beverage, and entertainment.
Simple to load native apps available on the Apple® App Store and Google® Play Store.
Our team is available by text, phone, and email — ready to help whenever it's needed.
See which stops visitors actually visit and how long they stay — real, documented engagement data.
